Observation coverage
We checked a broad set of core on-chain indicators. Unchecked indicators are neither risky nor safe.

This assessment is an uncalibrated estimate of fraud patterns — not a price or investment judgment.

A single decisive fact fixes grade F: Owner can arbitrarily change wallet balances This one fact fixes the grade (risk 88% · F). No matter how good the other metrics are, they cannot reverse this verdict, because it is a reproducible hard gate. Why? Verified · 2026-08-21 19:55 KST

Axis cards show where signals are, not a per-axis score — the %p contribution is a simple sum, while the actual combine uses diminishing returns (overlaps add less).

Can you sell? — You can sell now, but sell-blocking mechanisms exist

Mechanisms an owner could use to block sells — transfer pause, blacklist, cooldown — were found. It can turn into a honeypot at any time.

⚠ Observed liquidity fell by 90%+ during this period. What that means is not yet confirmed — we have not verified here whether it is the same pool throughout (a pool migration looks the same) or a measurement gap. Treat it as a signal to check, not as a rug verdict.

This General token has an estimated scam risk of about 88% (grade F). Decisive risk factors were found: Owner can arbitrarily change wallet balances. The main risk signals include Supply concentrated in a few wallets, Transfers can be paused, Trading tax can be changed at will. 6 positive signals were also found. This is an uncalibrated estimate and not investment advice.

How this score was produced

  • 🔴 A decisive risk factor forces at least 88%
  • ⚠ Risk signals combined (diminishing returns): 47% (overlapping signals add less and less)
  • = Final 88% (the larger of the two, capped at 100% · the weights are human-set)

🔴 Decisive facts (reproducible, near-certain)

FACT Owner can arbitrarily change wallet balances

The owner can arbitrarily change wallet balances, effectively zeroing out holders' tokens.

⚖️ Co-observed fact: ownership is renounced, so if this function is owner-only there is no one left to execute it and it may be locked. However, if the function is tied to a non-owner address such as the creator or an admin, it may still be effective regardless of the renouncement, so the score is kept conservative.

Risk signals (probability contribution)

HIGH Transfers can be paused — trading can be frozen (risk reduced by renounced ownership) +8

Transfers can be paused, letting the operator freeze trading.

HIGH Trading tax can be changed at will (risk reduced by renounced ownership) +8

The trading tax can be changed later, enabling a trap that spikes the tax after launch.

MEDIUM Transaction limit (anti-whale) can be changed at will (risk reduced by renounced ownership) +4

The transaction limit can be changed at will, even down to a sell limit of zero.

HIGH Supply concentrated in a few wallets (Max single holding 100.0%) +35

A few wallets monopolize the supply, so a single sell-off could collapse the price.

🟢 Positive signals (Green Flags)

These are observed facts, not approvals — appearing on a listing or data service means a profile exists there, not that anyone vetted the project.

GOOD Ownership renounced — owner-only powers cannot be exercised

Ownership was transferred to a burn address, so no one can call owner-only functions such as minting or pausing.

GOOD Not mintable — supply is fixed

No additional tokens can be minted, so there is no supply-dilution risk.

⚖️ However, a balance-change privilege exists, so holdings could be manipulated even without additional minting.

GOOD Source code verified and published

The contract source is public and verified, so anyone can check its behavior.

GOOD Sells work normally (not a honeypot)

A static check found no sell-blocking configuration. This reflects a code/configuration check, not an actual trade run — cross-checking via a real sell simulation is shown separately as the 'second-source cross-check' item.

GOOD No blacklist function

There is no function to arbitrarily block specific wallets from trading.

GOOD Liquidity (LP) locked (Locked 100%)

The liquidity is locked, so the risk of the operator pulling liquidity in a rug is low.

Web reputation & whitepaper check (optional · about 10s)

The score above is based on on-chain indicators. This button searches the public web now for scam allegations and whitepaper content (no re-run of the on-chain check). Web search is paid and slow, so we do not run it automatically on every token — only manually when needed. Once run, the result is saved and shown automatically from then on. Web allegations are not conclusions, so verify them directly.
